The Cloud: Innovative cantilevered glass balustrades and stair handrails designed for high barrier loading, completed in 2011 by Fletcher Construction and Jasmax in Auckland.
LOCATION: Auckland
CONSTRUCTION COMPANY: Fletcher Construction
ARCHITECT / DESIGNER: Jasmax
COMPLETED: 2011
The Cloud was designed originally as 'Party Central' for the 2011 Rugby World Cup. Woods Glass worked with Thermosash engineers to design, and install the cantilevered glass crowd loaded balustrades and stair handrails and brackets to the upper levels to meet the extremely high barrier loading requirement that was expected.
Woods Glass engineered and manufactured the handrail brackets and had them independently tested to confirm the loading parameters set by the façade engineers.
